She recently missed sister-in-law Joanna Burgess’ baby shower, amid rumours of a fallout.
But one relationship that seems to be going well for Phoebe Burgess is her marriage to NRL star husband Sam.
The couple put on a united front during a day out with their two children, two-year-old Poppy Alice and six-month-old Billy Mark at Taronga Zoo in Sydney on Tuesday.
Family day out! Phoebe and Sam Burgess put on a united front with their two children two-year-old Poppy Alice and six-month-old Billy Mark at Taronga Zoo on Tuesday
Phoebe shared photos to Instagram with the caption: ‘The zoo keeper said to watch out for head butting … I told the giraffes the same thing … stunning day at the zoo.’
The 30-year-old was the picture of happiness as she posed alongside her young family, in a $2,000 Balenciaga sweater paired with jeans and white sneakers.
Sam, 30, was the ultimate doting dad as he cradled Poppy while wearing a striped shirt with black shorts and white sneakers to match Phoebe’s.
The family outing comes four months after they reconciled following a brief split.

The NRL WAG parted ways with her husband of three years, just three weeks after the birth of baby Billy, however, they got back together in February.
The split followed a scandal in September 2018, when South Sydney Rabbitohs star Sam was cleared of any wrongdoing in a sexting scandal.
In April, she told Stellar magazine that their marriage is far from perfect and that the details surrounding their ‘split’ and reconciliation ‘will always and forever just be between Sam and I’.
‘We are together, we are married,’ she said.
‘Sam and I will have good days and we’ll have trying days. Every single person on this planet who is married knows it isn’t perfect. It’s never going to be perfect.
‘I’ll protect my family, I’ll protect my husband.’
While Phoebe and Sam are going strong, the mother-of-two has done little to dispel reports of a feud with her sister-in-law, Joanna Burgess.
The former journalist was absent from Joanna’s baby shower earlier this month, fuelling feud rumour.
Reports of a feud began when Joanna shared an Instagram post about the Burgess family’s annual Christmas lunch last year, prompting speculation that she had taken a ‘swipe’ at Phoebe.

In the post shared in December, Joanna said the family lunch at a Watson’s Bay restaurant, which Phoebe did not attend, ‘was the best one yet’.
But Joanna clarified in another Instagram post earlier this year: ‘It is not in my nature to take a dig at someone.
‘Phoebe has never joined the Burgess side for previous Christmas festivities. Therefore it couldn’t possibly be aimed at her!’
She continued: ‘My last year’s Christmas upload I used a similar caption as it was our son’s first Christmas. This year we had our daughter join the three of us, hence it being the ‘best one yet”.

Joanna later deleted the post.
In January, Daily Mail Australia revealed that Phoebe had unfollowed Joanna and George Burgess on Instagram.
Shortly afterwards, Joanna unfollowed Phoebe.
That same month, Phoebe ‘liked’ an Instagram post from her manager Sharon Finnigan, which read: ‘It’s funny how you’re nice to my face. It’s hilarious how you talk s**t behind my back. And it’s downright comical that you think I’m unaware.’
Taking a swipe? In this post shared to Instagram late last year, Joanna said the Burgess family’s Christmas lunch ‘was the best one yet’. Phoebe wasn’t pictured in the photo, leading fans to wonder whether Joanna’s post was a thinly-veiled swipe at her sister-in-law
